Your Home Buying Wishlist
We can all dream can't we? Here is a wishlist for you to print off for what type of property you are looking for. Don't make your expectations too high because if you can't find it then you will only be dissapointed. But do take your time and don't just
settle for anything. You could print a few off and give them to estate agents so that they will know exactly what you are
looking for and want waste your time offering you the wrong type. We have also prepared an inspection checklist for you to
take with you when going to view a property. Good luck in finding your dream home!
